COLUMBIjg 8. "C.
Friday Morning. October 13. 1871. .
Ttl? Spnmloti Situation.
The oh arming entente cordiale that
reigned lately between the King of
Spain and his people Beems to have come
to a sudden close. Only in the last few
weeks we were entertained every day
with lengthy cable despatches describing
tho enthusiastic welcome Amudoo had
mot with on LIB journey through Spain;
how tho Spanish dona had cheered him,
and everything seemed to breatbo an
atmosphere of roses. Tho amnesty for
all political offences seemed to exert a
most favorable influence on the diff?rent
political parties of Spain, and a large
numbor of tho Garlist leaders were even
induced to give up their old predilec?
tions, and by frankly joining the causo
of the new dynasty opon an era of
peace and prosperity for their distracted
country. In short, the dynasty of Sa?
voy, contrary to our expectations,
seemed to have gained a firm foot-hold
in Spain. Bat it appears not. A dis?
tressing ministerial crisis has taken
place, the cabinet resignod in a body,
and tho King had some difficulty in
forming uuuther. The ministry of
Zo ri ll a, whioh had just resigned, was,
indeed, not composed of men in whose
genius the people reposed entire con ii -
dence; no Richelieu or Bismarck was at
its head, but it was at least guided by a
spirit of honesty and patriotism, snob
as has animated of late few Spanish
Cabinets, and, in consequence, it pos?
sessed, in a great measure, the good will'
of the people, and its resignation will do
the King a great deal of damage. This
resignation,'given with a great deni of
ostentation in a. body to. the'Spanish'
<Jortes, has caused an immense excr??
ment In Spain, and some of the truest
friends of the King , implor? him1 to re?
call Zorilla and bia Cabinet, aa the atti?
tude of tba people in the capital add .the
?provinces is becoming moro formidable
every day. This the King reiuuea to
do, and he has, after vainly calling on
Espartero to-for.m a,Cabinet, intrusted
the tusk to Admiral Maloombe, who bas
already selected his colleagues. Bot no?
body expects the now Cabinet to have
stability. If matters had not looked so
?bad the old fox Espartero would surely
not have hesitated to tuke charge of the
holm of State, particularly as this re?
fusal follows right on the track of the
declarations of loyalty and everlasting
devotion "he made but lately to King
Amadeo. '
It would bo very bard to give a satis?
factory explanation of this sudden crisis,
in view of the exceedingly muddled
character of tho cable despatches; but
we should not be surprised if the finan?
cial diflloulties. of the t country had
brought about this collapse. The state
of Spain for the last fifty years has been
snob as to destroy its prosperity tho?
roughly. At the dethronement of Isa?
bella the country was oomplotely insolv?
ent, and that three years of internal
struggles and constant strife have not
improved its financial situation is very
evident. Daring the preceding months
we noticed in the Spanish official press
hints that the revenues of the country
were notsaffioiont to defray the expenses,
and a new tax.system was proposed. Tt
ia very likely that the difficulty this pro?
ject met with brought about the crisis,
for even' if the Spaniards oheer Amadeo,
they will be little inclined to tolerate
him if he should prove more expensive
than Isabella. They chased her away on
account of her extravagance, although
she was a Spaniard; how mnoh less
would they tolerate euch an offen?e in a
foreigner?
THE PIOUS Sooxsl-The1 Radical press
? North is horribly shocked at the idea of
Democratic peculation'. and fraud in the
city government of New York, and yet
we have yet to hear tbo first word of
.complaint' against the Radical thieves
who aro robbing the Federal Govern?
ment annually of many hundred mil?
lions, and in overy State and Territory
of the 'Union 1 The heinousness of
theft, in their eyes, depends altogether
whether the money goes into their
pockets o? into tho pockets of other
people. The 'Democrats of New York,
in their recent State convention,.' de?
nounced all Democrats engaged in these
frands aa "unworthy our (their) counte?
nance or toleration," and declared they
"woola look with satisfaction opon the
punishment of all. apon whom guilt can
be fixed." When did a Radical conven?
tion ever fi pe ak th tia of Radical thieves?

' THE SUFFERING) AT THE WEST.-Com?
menting on the terrible disasters io tho
West, daring tho past few weeks, the
Augusta Chronicle say's: | |
Tho telegrams of yesterday inform us
thal ut''length the devouring element,
whiou ut ono timo promised to oonsume
the greatest . city of the West, ua? been
subdued-not by human effort, bat
through the merciful interposition of the
rain of Heaven. Tho''destruction of
property han been imm?oBe. Repeated
telegraphic . message s do not. abate tho
estimate- of human suffering. IOU, (IOU
people' homeless" and fiOusuIessI The
great heart of this Western giant almost
utterly consumed. Thousands in a day
who were in umueuce reduced to waut,
and muny thousands .who, iu the buttlo
of life, hud stored up for the wants of
old age their hard-wrought earnings,
have found them all ?wept from thom ns
with the besom of destruction in a night.
Tba calamity at Chicago is made more
appalling in the destruotion which pre?
ceded it iu tbat area of country which is
largely tributary to it. A terrible drouth
bus prevailed generally throughout thu
North-west, and bas been particularly
severn in parts of Indiana, Illinois, Min?
nesota and Wisconsin. The diout? hus
been unparalleled. The Green Ruy
(Wis.) Advocate, in ohronioliug un ap?
palling uatalogne of tbed?eds of the fire
fiend, says': "We have been for three
months almost without rain. Hinco the
8th of July last, when wo had a heavy
shower in tbe night, rain has fallen but
ouce (the night of September 5th) iu
sufficient quantities to lay the dust."
I Did oar limits permit, it would be but
repetition without variableness oruhadow
of turning, to recount this history of
disasters. Mills, bouses, barns, fences,
fuel, hay-property of all kinds-wei?
swallowed up by tbe insatiate elemeut.
Families by the hundreds were driven
from their burning homesteads, to make
their way au best they could, with what
ever they oould save of their stuck and
household goods, to places, of refuge.
The, creeks, wells and springs dried up,
leaving no resource to stay the advancing
flames, 'save digging ditches:' The crop?
in ' tho soil-potatoes, turuips. &c.-ar?
destroyed. The forests are inaccessible
by reasou of flame, heat and smoke ; und,
therefore, "nothingeau bo ??timatud ex?
cept from tho effects of tho fire neur the
settlements, where it penetrated the
parched ground from one to- two feet,
and destroyed the life of tho trees."
But this picture of tho ooautry is re?
peated with more or less severity iu the
large area covered by the parts of tnt
States enumerated. The suffering which
ensues from these great calamities, ter?
minating in the grand catastrophe al
Chicago, is unutterable. Language- ii
beggared by any attempt to fiad expr?s*
sion for it, or to number its pulsations
But there are those among UB to wbua
this picture will recall terrible memories
Thoso who witnessed or endured, it
Sherman's marah from the mountains o
Georgia to the sea Southward, and fro ?
the sea Northward to tbe plains of Nor ti
Carolina, will recall vividly snub a pto
turo cf desolation, and ?keir houris wii
throb in responsive sympathy with tin
unfortunate victims. We well remembe
that memorable night wbeu, upon Roi
ling's Inland, in the Cougaree, where
having found concealment from Kilpat
rick'? cavalry, we witnessed, ut tue dis
tance of fifteen miles, the lambent flame;
reaching high up from the horizon, ob
scaring the stars with lurid glare, um
from their topmost reach blending inti
heavy rolling volumes of dark clouds
the passing away of Columbia, the one
beautiful oupitat of the Palmetto State
while, at our feet, seated upon the tut
temd cushion of an ambulance and re
dining against tue trunk of a swami
oak, a tender mother and wile of a Cou
federate officer, a fugitive, watched al
night tbe last straggles of ber dying ia
faut; and we well remember that w
journeyed from dawn to mid-day on tb
morning of the next day, through bl-mk
ened nod burning forests, and by tb
trail of white ashes which marked tb
fenceless fields, guided by the tall, rei
obimneys which stood Uko sentinels ove
tbe smouldering ruins of once bright am
happy homes.
We tender to the unfortunate victim
of this great calamity in tbe West sor
rowful sympathy. It is all that we o.n
spare to give.

OUOBAW, 8. O., Sep. 14. 1871.
Mr. L. C. Carpenter, Editor Daily Union,]
Columbia,'8, C.
? DBMI Sin: Wo have to-day soen a
copy of your.paper,-of the 21st pf Joly
laet, in which wo notice a oommanfoation
signed "Gil," and dated "Chesterfield
Connty, 8. O., July 17, 1871."
Wo do not propose to notion tho many
fiitae statements contained in that article,
for there is ; scarqely a' word of truth in
the whole of it; but (hero is ono state?
ment which, ns good citizens, having the
welfare of the who lo commuai ty at heart,
wo desiro to notice, uud that is this;
"The murderers of this (tho Melton)
family, are kuown hero to every Demo
orat and mauy Republicans." Now, we
pronounce tin? statement utterly and
unqualifiedly falso, for wo aro all De mo?
omin, aud nono of us know anything
whatever us to who were the murderers
nf the Meltons, and we are all well satis?
fied that the statement is n gross libel not
ouly upon "every Demoarat," but also
upon "many Republicans" of this Coun?
ty.
Oar main object, however, is to learn
from you who the author of this cum
muuicutiou is, iu order that we may
huve him bound over to testify nt the
next term of thu Court of Sessions, ia
regard to this subject, about which he
seems to know eo much, so thnt the au?
thors of this horrible tragedy may bo
brought to trial.

THE CASE OF THE REV. M. D. WOOD.
We leam from our recent Atlanta ex
changes that this case came up before
Judge Hopkins, ou Tuesday, the 3d in?
stitut', ou a motion for new trial, nod,
after henriug the argument of couusel,
the motion wus refused, and the defend?
ant was sentenced to twenty years' im?
prisonment in the penitentiary. This
is the maximum punishment for seduc?
tion nuder the Georgia code. Judge
Hopkins must,.therefore, not ouly huve
been satisfied of the guilt of the defend?
ant, but must bave regarded it as a most
Aggravated ease of moral depravity. We
learn, further, that the Atlanta Presby?
tery, of which Mr. Wood was a member,
convened at his church in Decatur, ou
the 29th ultimo, aud, by their soutence,
deposed him from the ministry and sus?
pended him from the church.

make any change until after a conference
with Senator Sawyer. Ex-Congressman

A Washington letter, of Monday, to
the Bal ti m oro Gazette Bays:
Seuator Suwyer called upon tho Presi?
dent, to-day, to meet tho charges made
against Johnson, marshal of South Ca?
rolina. Hu showed that whilst tho fac?
tion that is Becking the removal of John?
son were ohargiug him with alleged
sympathy with the Ku Klux, the unu?
sual was, at that very momeut, deliver?
ing a number of the Ku Klux over to
tbe custody of the court at Columbia,
and, us sbowu by a press tulogram, bud
gone to arrest others. That instead of
coming beru and neglecting bis business
to beg ii eon ti n ii au ce in o 111 ce, ho was
faithfully discharging the duties of hin
ellice. How much the President will be
affected by this statement of Senator
Sawyer remuius to be Been, but the
other faotion of Radicals, demanding
tbe appointment of Hogo in pince of
Johnson, are ooufident of success. The
Radicals uro now divided among them?
selves over the Federal official patronage.
THREATS.-Stung by our complete nud
repeated exposures of its raw-head-aud
bloody-bones stories, tho Columbia
Union, in a paroxysm of impotent rage,
hurls the auuthema of disloyalty st the
Charleston Newa, uud threutens tis with
tho dire pains and penalties of tho Ku
Klux Aut. Our inventive contemporary
should keep cool, lt must kuow that ail
the combined powers of a .1 migo Rond,
a Governor Scott and a President Grant,
great as these may be, cannot purge its
columns of the disgrace of systematic
nud malicious misrepresentation of H a
bravo and law-abiding people. Nor is
the timo yet come when the bayonet is
tho censor of honest journalism. If
ever, aud anywhere, a free and out?
spoken press was a great public ueees
sity. South Carolina is the place, aud
this is the time. A press that eau
neither bu bullied nor bribed is tho lust
remaining check upon the otherwise un?
bridled rascality of our rulers. The
Union is wastiug its loyul "warnings."
If its falsifications wero but half as
harmless as its threats, wo should never
have been at tbe trouble of- exposing
them. - Charleston News.
